Masashi Takahashi

I am a PhD candidate at Smeal College of Business, Pennsylvania State University. My research focuses on asset pricing, financial intermediation, and real estate. In particular, I am interested in demand system asset pricing applied to fixed-income and real estate markets.

Prior to joining Smeal, I served as a consultant at Deloitte, advising financial institutions in Tokyo, Japan.

I am on the academic job market in 2026–2027. This summer, I was a Dissertation Fellow at the Federal Reserve Board in Washington, D.C.
